DISTILLERY NOTES

Canada’s first Genever celebrates a recipe dating back to the early 1600’s when the Dutch East India fleet roamed the seas in search of exotic spices.

Made from local malted barley and infused with more than 20 rare botanicals; from mugwort to wormwood, horehound to blessed thistle. Our ‘Dutch Courage’ is unique, complex, and a DEVINE must-try.

The Genever aroma is clean with an equal blend of herbal, floral, medicinal, and citrus.

BC SPIRITS NOTES

Shocked that I haven’t tried this yet for Spirit a Day. Devine Distillery Genever is one of the first in the country and does not disappoint. Malt wine backbone lends to complex and rich botanicals that gives it huge mouthfeel, incredible body and so much flavor. Try this in a Martinez.

Alcohol - 45% / 90 Proof

Color - Clear

Nose - Complex mid strength botanicals, hints of citrus and the back bone of single malt spirit

Taste - Like a gin but not, complex, earthy herbs and spices are balanced with tangy citrus and that structural malty backbone

Finish - Complex and long, a mix of malty and citrusy

Best Enjoyed - Neat with an ice cold pilsner
